Anybody know the specs on the Toyota OEM transfer case skid plate PT228-35248? Specifically, material (aluminum vs steel), and weight? No useful info with the Toyota Parts Online listing, and I have not found any elsewhere either.
All Trailhunter skid plates are steel. The TRD skidplate is aluminum.

Do you know the weight of these plates? & since the Trailhunter skid plate does not have any openings for oil, filter change or trans oil change is it easy to remove and replace these for fluid changes? I ask cause I'm looking for decent skid plates for my 2025 4runner t rd.

I don’t know if this helps you but I have the TRD skid plate on my Sport premium. I was able to remove it easily by myself with the truck on ramps. Two of the bolt holes are slotted so you can loosen two bolts, remove the other two. Then you can just slide the skid plate over. Make sense?

Anyone know the part number for the transfer case skid plate? For the Non-Hybrid models.
Is there a steel and aluminum version?

I keep seeing PT228-35244 and PT228-35248.
They seem to be the same one but it only mentions Taco

Toyota part website says the PT228-35248 fits a non hybrid TRD OR. Double check with your trim level. I assume its steel to be similar to the trailhunter front skid plate but could be wrong

Can. You change the rear diff oil without removing the skid plate?

Dealership actually sold me the non hybrid TCSP, then a hybrid version showed up at my door step before I even had a chance to try the one they sold me. (y) KELLY TOYOTA.

Heading out to the shop to see if it's gonna match up with my "Pro" TRD front skid.

You can pair the TRD plates with the trailhunter transmission plate. Send pics on how it looks
